Mulling over the concept of assassination as I walked alone down Idylberry Road I was convinced that there were assassins running all over the country shooting people at random. If they could kill a president what could they do to a little girl in a plaid cotton dress? I’ve always wondered if my fears would have been lessened had I been able to stand around with a group of friends, talk about what happened and wait for a cheerful yellow bus to... (more)

...of family honor. This member of my family requested crucifixion so that he could do something so wise that he let the mindless hordes carry this message through time until civilization was intelligent enough to find the puzzle and change the course of history.
